Stamford Acoustic Music Circle
St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church 1231 Washington Blvd, StamfordHey fellow musicians! I’m Larissa and I’m the new organizer of the Acoustic Circle! Let’s keep this group going! I look forward to meeting you and making music together. The Greenwich Acoustic Music Circle (GAMC) is a monthly play/sing along jam for those interested in playing and singing acoustic rock. We welcome people at INTERMEDIATE levels of ability. Bring one PRE-1980's song and one POST-1980's song, in this way, we are not a traditional "folk music" circle. About half way through the evening, we take a break to eat/drink/mingle. It's simply an evening of sharing great songs with others in a friendly and supportive environment. For more information
